    I was just in Sheridan a few weeks ago. We toured King Ropes, the museum out back, and yes, I bought a hat.

    What's weird is, letting the traveller force the twist like that, rather than arresting it by hand, is considered 'wrong' by rope maker standards, as it's 'too hard a twist' and you'll get shouted at. Yet they not only let the cob and traveller loose, but let it force itself along down the walk. I've never seen that before, but it explains why farm rope in America is so damned rigid! Although I sincerely believe the only reason for the hand arrest on the cob or traveller is to spare the materials, you can get an extra ten feet of rope with a soft sub 45 degree arrest. Which probably saved rope makers a fortune in the long term. This is a MUCH easier way to make rope. Albeit a very stiff rope.

    I stopped at Wall Drug, Wall, SD on a road trip a couple weeks back (with all the signs before you get there who CAN’T stop at Wall Drug?) and in one of the departments there were used ropes on the wall for $15. Not knowin’ nuthing about a cowboy lariat I picked one that looked nice. “50’ of 1/2” rope for $15, that can’t be a bad decision.” It’s a little fuzzy but otherwise beautiful. It has a proper hondo knot to form the “eye” and its previous owner even took the time to sew on a bit of a leather chafe guard in the bole of the eye. It’s a whistler by Cactus Ropes. Says 35’ but my ruler tells me closer to 45’. Still has the bushy frayed bit at the other end.
    I know it’s not natural fiber so the stopper knot on the “hondo” end is just a melted blob of nylon, not a proper stopper but every bit a practical.
    A nice souvenir from Wall Drug.

      Before I get called out… it looks to be a bit of rawhide that is used as the chafe guard, not leather.

    I’m curious when I saw these lariats are soaked in paraffin wax, do y’all know how piggin string or racer calf string is made so stiff? Is it just melted nylon???

    Great rope for how it's used by the cowboys. But this kind of rope won't last for the Mexican Vaqueros endeavors.
